I picked up this tip in a class at the BYU conf on Family History and Genealogy today. The presenter suggested that individuals enlist their grandchildren to help them set-up spreadsheets to track meta-data and templates for research logs etc.
My kids haven't figured out those kinds of boring things yet, and since office software is my other specialty, I won't be able to make much use of this tip yet. But maybe you can!
What I can tell you is that the Spirit of Elijah is strong, and that Genealogy really can be addictive. Any way you can help get their feet wet is a way to introduce them to the spirit of the work. Maybe after enough introductions....(at least I hope so!)
